My developing team recently...Thanks for this Karen. My developing team recently developed an application based on FRBR in order to facilitate the cataloguing. Based on FRBR study, we designed an entity-relationship model and we have been working with it for two years, and everything seems to be fine. We are now trying to adapt to RDA and currently we have a Linked Data prototype based on rdaregistry.org vocabulary. We would be so happy to share our ideas with everybody.

I recently took a mechanics of metadata course (Library Juice Academy) where the instructor walked us through from the conceptual model level on down and it was really difficult for me to stop thinking about "records" when diagramming possible entities etc. I kept leaping forward to what I thought would then be in a record in the database itself! It was a really good lesson learned.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09232625011134860094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3338174527262061848.post-8627223971113825182014-02-18T12:21:03.511-08:002014-02-18T12:21:03.511-08:00Yes, thank you, we do need technical designs that ...Yes, thank you, we do need technical designs that allow us to create and exchange data, and to store and search the data. Beyond that, though, there are so many questions. Do we need a single record format that is used by all libraries? (Is that a reasonable goal?) What are our goals for sharing? Who will manage the shared bibliographic metadata? How will we fund such an endeavor? Where do the library vendors fit in to all of this? <br /><br />My main question, though, is: can we support a period of experimentation until we come to a new agreement about bibliographic data? I consider this important because I do not think that we can work it all out ahead of time with a traditional standards process, because that will take too long.Karen Coylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02519757456533839003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3338174527262061848.post-80378909171720443332014-02-16T12:52:30.008-08:002014-02-16T12:52:30.008-08:00In fact it is a very good explanation to the natur...In fact it is a very good explanation to the nature of the FRBR study and its very objectives.This means that FRBR model entities do not lend themselves directly to be bibliographic records .But there must be a database design as a necessary step to construct a bib record.<br />G.Alfaramawy <br />Arabic Union Catalog Center <br />Riyadh , Saudi Arabia<br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610871297608563501noreply@blogger.com
